HICKL Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 I am trying to figure out how much my motor should lean back without causing any problems (not concerned with drivetrain yet). If I set a level on the top edge of my valve cover, I have about 3 degrees of tilt from front to back. What is the perfect setup, does it really matter within reason, will a 700 r4 be adversly effected if tilted too much? Thanks Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterZ Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Your driveshaft angle will suffer (vibrate) if it doesn't match or "mirror" the differential angle. I don't have links to more info but I'll bet there's more coming from others here. My recommendation is try to measure your angles now so you will know where. You'd really need severe angles for oiling problems to occur. (Nobody drives on totally flat land.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
